Our Lincoln-born granddaughter will shortly be going to Sheffield Hallam University and we've been trying to teach her some Sheffield words/phrases so that she'll be able to make herself understood. Does the younger generation of Sheffield-born people still say "t'Wicker wheer t'watter runs o'er t'weir"?

You'll probably find they say something more like
"Yo blood, it's in da river innit" and those are the white ones.

Or is it now " t'Wicker wheer t'watter runs down t'road"
